— Hello!

— Hello! Do you have grandparents?

— Yes, I'm a lucky one. I have two grannies and two grandpas. And you?

— So do I. Let's talk about our grandparents.

— OK. I'd like to tell you about my mother's father. He is a very interesting man for me. He has a very big garden, and he keeps bees, five bee hives. Once I organized an excursion to his hives. It was interesting to watch his work with his hives.

— Did you taste honey?

— Sure. He gave us fresh honey with tea. All my classmates were very glad to taste it.

— It's very interesting. And I'd like to tell you about my father's mother. She has a piano, and she is a very good musician. When she was young, she used to go to different parts of our country with the concerts. I think that my musical ability comes from her. Now she doesn't have concerts, she daily teaches me to play the piano. I'm very thankful to her.

— OK. Thank you for our talk. Maybe I'll come to your place to listen to your granny.

— Maybe. And I'd like to go to the country to see your grandpa's hives. Bye.

— Bye-bye.

— What flat do you live in?

— It's rather large and comfortable. And a good thing about our flat is that the kitchen is rather big.

— I live with my parents and grandparents.

— Are they still working?

— No, they are on pension.

— And where do they live?

— In a country house, not very far from Moscow. It takes me 35 minutes to get to the downtown.

— Do you have all modern conveniences?

— Sure. And our house is rather big. It's a two-storey building. I have a room of my own there. There is a big living room and a kitchen, but the bathroom is not very large.

— I'd like to come to your place. Can I do it tomorrow?

— Of course. Write down my address. See you tomorrow at 5 pm.

— Bye-bye.
